I guess people have to try out a bunch of new religious expressions, ranging from New Age to Yoga to EST to Head-Chopping. I mean, the Aztecs did it, didn't they?

... Taking a page from the Islamic group ISIS operating in neighboring
Syria, a small group of young fundamentalist Jews influenced by radical
religious leaders target Christian sites as centers of heretical idol
worship and unwelcome missionary activity. In the past three years, a
dozen churches and monasteries have been bombed, burned, or vandalized.
Until the June firebombing, no one was charged in any of these
incidents...
It is not Islam. It is not Judaism. It is a new religion in the Cradle of Civilization that needs human sacrifice.
It is the Great Achievement of our age, and it is the Great Disaster, too, to discover now at this time of the 21st century that Armageddon is not essentially Armies that Clash by Day and Night....
It is the ceaseless invocation of a new Moloch who desires bloody human hecatombs.
Destruction has been discovered to be Religion!
